LAKELAND ELECTRIC UTILITIES ROAD CLOSURE - POWER POLE RELOCATION

LAKELAND, FL (February 2, 2012) -- On Monday, February 6, 2012, Lakeland Electric will be closing portions of Ingraham Avenue from McDonald Street to US 98 South. The road closure will take place between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. starting February 6th through February 28th.

The closure is necessary to allow Lakeland Electric enough room to relocate electric power poles and overhead electric power lines along Ingraham Avenue. These closures are necessary to provide safety for our employees and the public.

This work is necessary to continue to provide electricity safely and reliably to our customers. A message board has been installed to advise those already using this route of the pending closure. Traffic will be clearly routed by the appropriate signs and barricades to assist with an orderly flow of traffic. Questions should be directed to Lakeland Electric’s Project Manager at 863/834-6311.
